This is why I don’t do mail in ballots. They know it is a Democratic thing so they like to call races early. I do early in-person voting in NJ. We voted October 26th
I will criticize the morning Joe crew if they failed to hold him to account, report his corruption and ask the right questions. Until then, I will reserve my criticism.
Why do you even watch them? Both Mika and Joe each make $8M a year. Joe is a right-wing Republican who voted to impeach Clinton. Joe worked with Trump on the 1st campaign, talking to him everyday. Then he did the same with Biden. Now back to Trump.
You'd have to admit it was weak tea move to go see him though? You have know he laughed at them as they left his presence to get in the awaiting car and he now knows that he owns them.
MJ went there to get access and be the first of the liberal weanies to kiss his ring. I don’t care that fear of retribution motivated them. They aren’t special- he’s got a list. They offered their heads to him, like cowards. Benedict Arnold.
When people show you who they are, believe them the FIRST time! Joe and Mika are trash with their scary a$$es! Joe was like Jim Jordan when he was in Congress. I remember and will NEVER understand the level of grace given to these people. It’s why America is where it is now🤷🏾♀️
I cant foresee them doing anything close...tipi-toeing around all his abominations and maybe some mild pearl clutching followed immediately by massive butt kissing.
the problem with that is they are modeling how to bow to the dictator in non-verbal actions, JUST BY GOING THERE. Remember Rep. mfr. spkr. McCarthy talking smack about Trump on 1/7/21, and then he flippin' goes to Mar-a-Letgo (sic)
I’m from DC, live in AZ. MSNBC felt like a link to home. I’d see someone I know and cheer a little. I’m homesick for my former self. That life is gone and it’s never coming back. 😢 Now the city will be gone. COVID nearly killed downtown. I don’t see para-govt businesses hanging on for 4 more years.
Haven't turned on MSM since 3AM on 11/6. Joy Reid and Lawrence O'Donnell are the only MSM that never flirted with fascism. Independent journalists are the way to go and I hope Joy and Lawrence get off of MSNBC.
Of course they did, not doing so might get them all killed. trump has promised blood and fire, the smart people are getting out ahead of that in a bid to survive it. It's no capitulating, its playing smart.
Are you kidding? It’s blatantly obvious they care only about themselves, they went to save their hides, no one else’s. All the Votes in Pennsylvania, Washington State, CA and other states are still being counted. Don’t care about Women’s rights, LGBTQ, Trans it’s all about them, punk ass bitches
Until someone can explain to me otherwise, I’m going to assume that every Dem, GOP, and Journalist who obeys in advance is being blackmailed by Trump and Musk.
This election has differences from 2016, but also has similarities. Why obey in advance? Attorneys driving to airports to address the "Muslim Ban" did put a chilling effect on Trump's last foray.
They’ve been obedient to that piece of shit for 8 years.
Our democracy is gone.
Their Freedom of the Press will be gone soon.
But boy, just look at those ratings!
Isn't it strange that they are only rigging elections that may favour a Democrat and not the wholesale gerrymander that allows the GOP to skate into power.
The PA senate election was Very Close. Provisional ballots take time to confirm. In the course of doing that, many legal voters were found to have been removed from voter rolls improperly and illegally.
Every legal voter has the right to have their vote count. But Trump says no?!?!?
Yep- it's not gonna stop, win or lose , they will forever say Dems cheat. What they really mean is-there are more Dems than Republicans and if all dems vote and all their votes are counted, they will lose everytime.
The democrats aren't doing shit. Like they are literally in their safe corners while the rest of us are hung out to dry or die. Sorry Marc, I love your news letters but, f the dems.
Ok, ik that, and you're rt. I don't mean to sound rude, I'm just saying that I (I'm not the only one) feel completely abandoned by my own party. Especially knowing how hard myself and others worked. And hey, maybe it's so quiet because there's things going on we would have no way of knowing.
I completely agree with all of this. I'm tired of the elite dems. We desperately need a new generation of leaders. Like wipe the whole slate and start fresh.
I refuse to continue risking my children's safety or mine. I have engaged with many maga. I have been met with hate and threats, including to rape my children. Regardless of how polite I have been, it is not returned. If you folks want to try to educate, please do. But those who tried are tired
The sad part is these people have always lived here, but felt it was wrong to speak like this. Now their hatred was given permission by a candidate flirting with white supremacist and other hate groups. Those that have held these opinions are just being more vocal about them. it's also scary
I don’t want to turn blue sky into a shit hole, which is why I’m being quite mean to any Trump assholes I find around here. Does that make me the asshole? Who knows?
That is not how you fight them. Ignorance is not bliss. We need to hear their side to combat it. We need to stand up to them, not do what mainstream media has done to us.
We have heard their side. Maga shoved it down our throats. Months and months of listening and trying to lead them to facts ended with hate from them. Many of us are done being verbally abused. When they are ready to listen, we will know and help. But I don't deserve the hate I received.
I've been blocking asshole magas. The very few I find that are actually having a conversation over topics gets a pass.
I'm all for blocking the trolls but those that actually want intelligent discourse aren't blocked.
Idk if you’ve noticed for the past 16 years (at least since Obama), BUT IT’S NOT WORKING. So no. Block and move on, let them start infighting which is exactly what will happen when they have no one else
So, in my opinion based on my experience, there's a good portion of Trump's voter base that would probably vote differently if they were given the opportunity to research and truly learn about both candidates. Instead, our country is split into echo chambers where we can hear only what we want.
By flirting I meant talking nicely to them to the side like the wait and watch comment to the Proud Boys last administration. Enticing them with words that'll make them feel less afraid to be more public. Anything to sow Division in this nation. That's what putin wants with him. Just Division here
I believe we need to control the media for democracy. Woke was and invented word with bad connotations.
I believe Democracy is freedom and equality not to be governed by church
Or a dictator.
Add more for a new definition for Democrats and democracy!
A true democracy does not need to control the media. That's exactly what the GOP wants to do and in their current form, do not want a democracy. A true democracy has guardrails in place (aka regulations) in order to set standards of practice for what is acceptable in society.
In this current I do believe there are different parameters. Media past two elections has fawned over the clickbait of Trump. This needs to be stopped. I do hold media Fox, Washington Post and other accountable for the elections.
Promoting only for their media instead of democracy.
This guy is so full of himself it's unbelievable, makes me wonder if the majority of Americans are also like this. Zero accountability, zero humility. Me, me, me and only me.
Something went down.... yeah the media convinced people the economy was bad and Harris and surrogates were not successful at convincing them otherwise. This is not evidence. If we are going to demand a recount, we need evidence.
And Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia. What are we going to DO to help Trump fail? We have two years to take enough action that it influences mid-term elections!
Or that he had to resign, over something that comparatively is not only demure, but that Al Franken took responsibility for, don’t even get me started. Franken situation is a travesty as we sit here, looking at a cabinet sexual predators.
More like a trillion Rubles a year in increased expenses and a trillion rubles in lost revenue but Putin isn't counting. Putin lost 700,000 Russian's in 3 years of a planned 3 day Special Military Operation without a care.
In the fight to save democracy the MSM is not who you want leading the charge. They are more like the snivelling Lieutenant Elroy Carpenter from McHales Navy.
It’s always rigged, I’m not being treated fairly, they cheated! Corruplican whine about everything… you know Bush’s Republicans didn’t show some much bitch energy as these people….
There should be an audit in my opinion because I'm having a hard time believing he won. There was a lot of support for Harris/Walz and too many strange things going on. Bomb threats? Lots of them and who knows what else.
And, also worth noting: only races that seem in question for someone in the GOP, only THOSE are "rigged." It actually stuns me how obvious this all is.
So sick of his lying, he should have been held responsible for Jan 6, removing and hiding classified documents, and being Putin’s asset. This crap is embedded in the Cdn Conservative Party. We have our own maple MAGA. 🇨🇦💖🇺🇦
Sorry no. Your MAGA ppl have had many photo ops with the maple MAGA Conservatives . It’s the same propaganda, slick slogans, no platform other than to blame the prime minister for things that are the responsibility of their own conservative premiers. Sad.
MAGA are actually losers and proud of it and now don't know how to direct their hatred since their dear leader WON. Dear leader has to tell them what to think next and that could be ugly.
There are multiple election security experts coming fwd with proof of election tampering. @Spoonamore has said he’d even testify in Court! I don’t know why Kamala is abandoning us! I’m ready to leave the Dem party over this & I’ve been a diehard Dem since 76!
Does she need to be involved? Maybe what's being reported doesn't have real evidence behind it, saying it and having it are different. I honestly haven't seen anything and will look for myself now. I'm cynical and would need some very compelling evidence before I'd start denying elections.
It DOES have real evidence & @Spoonamore has said he will testify. And YES she needs to be involved. Courts require an injured party. you can look him up on Twitter & get his Spoutable link & see it for yourself. Just bcuz you haven’t seen it doesn’t mean it’s not true.
If we’re rigging can we change the results? What a baby making sure he’s the racist, rapist, most corrupt president, and making sure America looks like fools because of this fachist 🍊💩🤡.
Can we stop using expressions like legacy media? It feels like you're aligning with a certain narrative, of a certain CEO, of a certain other social media platform.
No one who would try to appoint an anti-vaxx conspiracy theorist to head HHS has the slightest credibility to say anything serious and be believed. Time for bed, Spanky. Maybe Bonzo will visit you in your dreams.
He knows not only his Senate candidate lost, but likely lost his own election in that state. I hope those election day um disturbances are resolved promptly and those votes are counted
I don’t know how much more needs to be said about the media. Everyone has got to shut them out completely. Tank their ratings. They aren’t our friends in any way. None of them are.
I'm going to miss them, but I've decided the Times with its both-sides normalization and The Post with its ill-timed non-endorsement are too disgusting to support anymore. Both cancelled.
Also, to the legacy media that are echoing Donald Trump:
Screw you!
We see you!
We no longer need you!
You are losing your power, &
You WILL BE replaced!
This from the guy that tried to rig the 2020 election by claiming fraud in every state he lost... and then sent an angry mob to destroy our nation's Capital... when he didn't get his way... got it... 😏
Do you think any part of the Project 2025 agenda will get off the House Floor? Will dems tie up the unconstitutional agenda with lawsuits and Philibusters?
You didn’t yet know? The Marxists steal elections through ballot fraud. True Liberals bailed on the Neo con, Marxist cabal of corporate fascists. True liberals believe in being honest and fair. The left is now controlled by those who seek to conquer our population. sad how they trick people like U

We need to start lifting up independent journalists, writers, artists, film makers, thinkers. And everyone willing to stand for justice & democracy
Independent journalist Starter Pack made by others:
https://bsky.app/starter-pack-short/78bv2wC
Lift up and organize independent journalists
We’ve been doing that already but it’s not adequately organized
It needs a multi disciplinary team
Thank you for this list!

#ObeyingInAdvance
Why? Because they gain record profits airing his clown & horror show.
Big Media even admitted it.
They lack integrity and could care less about Americans while they rake in the dough.
Big Media made Trump president.

We are all hurting & grieving!
I feel abandoned by the Ds - they were all over on messaging. I've been texting Jaime & the comms at DNC.
I hope the DNC brings in Ben Wikler from WI. He turned WI around.
I was soo embarrassed when these Ds were attempting to question tech leaders. You cd tell that 1/2 of them had no clue.
And that "polite politician" act must stop now. Rs won't change.

Might as well call them his mouthpiece
I would vote for a waffle rather than Trump.
Kamala would have been great.

There is a political maxim that decent, honorable people doing decent, honorable things will generally be punished by the electorate.
In my view, that has been conclusively proven.
Trump is a liar

I guess I’m going to start using the term “Legacy Media“ instead of ”mainstream media”
“Legacy Media” is much better because of a derogatory connotation while good balanced “mainstream media” is what we strive for
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5-pOjj94fo
absolutely *zero* follow-up to any Republican asking "what *about* that rigged election?"
The 40% of Americans that did not vote!
Screw you!
We see you!
We no longer need you!
You are losing your power, &
You WILL BE replaced!
Any involved in that and other recounts get free hot stone and steamed towels massage from me! XD
What is our plan to communicate?
How was he re-elected 🤦🏻♀️
